How do you prevent iPhone from cleaning apps

Recently my phone has been running low on space and my iPhone 5 has been cleaning up a lot of apps and it is really irritating. Is there anyway to manually control which apps to clean or completely off this cleaning function ? Thanks

iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.1

I have the same problem. I have this game called Summoners War and it needs to download extra files for it and every time I don’t use it and get back on it (like 2 hours) it asks me to redownload the same files and it is really annoying having to wait every time I want to play.
